Coldplay Kanye West Among Headliners For Danish Festival
The 2009 Roskilde Festival has lined up a diverse roster of performers, including Coldplay, Kanye West, Nine Inch Nails, Oasis and Lil Wayne.
Now in its 39th year, the event is the world’s longest-running outdoor music festival and will take place outside of Copenhagen, Denmark from July 2 to 5.
Other scheduled performers include Lily Allen, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, the Pet Shop Boys, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Slipknot, Fleet Foxes and the Mars Volta.
More than 75,000 festival-goers are expected to attend the seven-stage event.
According to Billboard, organizers are giving the event an environmentally-conscious touch with an initiative called “Green Footsteps.” Not only will the festival’s Odeon and Sustainable stages host CO2-friendly shows, donations will benefit environmental projects in India and Bangladesh.
